The Australia PR point system define the points allocated to a Skilled
visa applicant based on key factors of his/her profile, such as, age,
education, work experience, English proficiency, etc. Hence, if you
are a skilled visa applicant, you must try to score highest points
for each factor to get a decent point score, which can get Invitation
to Apply (ITA) for visa from Department of Home Affairs, Australia.
The Australia Immigration points table given below is pertinent to the
applicants of Visa Subclass 189/190/491. It clearly reflects the
points a visa applicant can obtain for each profile factor.
